GOOD NEWS!
Arborists have found that although this little bug is doing damage to crops, it does not appear to be fatally harming trees!
Every year, PHS (Pennsylvania Horticultural Society) offers basic tree care classes across the greater Delaware Valley. The program offers hands-on tree care training; covering biology, identification, planting and proper care. If you have ever wanted to know more about trees, this is the perfect opportunity to learn! Check out the PHS Tree Tenders page here.
The cost of the 3-class series or 1-day training is normally $40. Register with us, and The Rutledge Shade Tree Commission will pay for your class in full. Please contact us for the next class dates!
Everyone can be an expert in their backyard! See our previous PSA articles and videos.
The Rutledge Borough Shade Tree Commission exists to serve the community as an advisory resource to Borough Council as well as residents on all matters regarding trees on properties both public and private. The Shade Tree Commission aims to actively re-forrest Rutledge's once tree-lined streets. With the knowledge of best practices and practiced arboricultural experience, The Shade Tree Commission intends to encourage and empower Rutledge residents to invest in the ecology of their property and their community through planting trees. Together as neighbors, we will beautify our community and set an example of environmental stewardship for future generations in Rutledge.
